Germany-based Sunlight is not among the top brass, but it is an adventure company with an impressive fleet of and . While other companies are stressing on configuring vehicles to accommodate passengers, Sunlight has tailored the new Vanlife – yes, the camper van is called Vanlife – with a layout that can accommodate your gear and a few guests without hampering your privacy.
Oftentimes, people are faced with the dilemma of how to configure their camper vans to make place for more than a couple of residents, without (of course) compromising the legalities. With the Vanlife, Sunlight has most brilliantly been able to create that ideal layout and an appealing design, which every family or group of friends who like to travel together for an extended time would appreciate. But would they really do? Let’s head down to find out.
Designer:
The camper van has a pop-up roof, accessible via a storage-integrated internal staircase, which obviously would be the chief sleeping section. The room below has convertible seating for remote working, dining, and sleeping a couple. The standout here (and potentially a letdown also) is the separate cab. Since it is walled off from the living area, it takes up the space to seat an additional set of people during the day. You get the extra convenience, a warmer, and private living space, but up front, the Vanlife only carries two people in the cab while driving.
So that gets me to thinking, if the numbers don’t match up for occupancy during the day and night time usage; is the Vanlife only made for a couple’s living in it as a mini-home on wheels: where you can sleep stargazing happily in the pop-up section and have the living area and dinette laid out like in your apartment back in the city. And of course, the area can also be used as a remote work desk even if you’re working a graveyard shift.
Until Sunrise plans to add another row of seats in the cabin, the flexibility and convenience of a second bed always stands, which can accommodate a couple on the way, should they choose to spend a night in your classy Vanlife. Despite the compact van size, the freshly thought layout with full separation from the driver’s cab bestows the camper van an exceptional feeling of spaciousness. So, you get a wet bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen. The bathroom is located right across the staircase and features, folding sink, a shower (that swings out through the window for outdoor use), and a bench toilet. The kitchen has a dual-burner stove on a flip-up worktop, and a 64L fridge under the staircase.
To ensure you can have extended time on the road, both as a couple or with a set of friends, Vanlife gets 100L of fresh water, 90L waste water tanks, and a rechargeable 95Ah battery. Its convenient design clears up space in the middle to store and carry your adventure gear, and this entire package is priced at €58,999 (roughly $68,000).
